Global Score

The Engadget Global Score is a unique ranking of products based on extensive independent research and analysis by our expert editorial and research teams. The Global Score is arrived at only after curating hundreds, sometimes thousands of weighted data points (such as critic and user reviews).

First Looks

The tablet's edges are rounded, and a rubber lining is on hand to protect ports and connections. Though Panasonic touts this guy as the thinnest rugged device in its size group, that's not saying much; it's no Nexus 7 or iPad mini, basically.

Don't expect super thin design with the FZ-M1 – this is a corporate tablet that's designed for use on the move and in difficult conditions. However, it's around the same thickness as many thin and light laptops at 18mm.

The FZ-M1 is a classic Toughpad. There are so many impressive design features – the passively-cooled Core i5, the “bridge” battery, and the sheer number of customisations available – that it finds itself in a different class to any other compact tablet out there.
